Lu Ning walked in the fog for two thousand years. When he emerged, he found the world seemed to be sick.
The sun grew tentacles, the planets were covered in flesh and blood, the moon grew num...
Li Yang and the others could see the polluted white mist that Lu Ning absorbed when he absorbed the pollution from the Earth's core.
They were already speculating that Lu Ning was absorbing spiritual pollution.
Upon hearing Lu Ning's words, Xuan Xu couldn't help but ask, "Is Earth really polluted?"
Lu Ning nodded: "But it's not too troublesome, I've already absorbed the mental pollution."
Li Yang and his companions immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good."
"Thanks to you, Lu Ning."
As guardians of humanity, their greatest concern is naturally the safety of human civilization.
If the Earth were to encounter a problem, the most pressing issue would be the survival of humankind.
Fortunately, Lu Ning solved the problem.
The exiled demigods looked at each other in bewilderment.
Their clan's records document planetary diseases that eventually transformed into evil gods that devoured life on the planet.
As a result, Lu Ning even absorbed the pollution from the planet.
The chieftain of the Tarlin tribe couldn't help but sigh, "If only we had an incredible awakener like Lord Lu Ning in our tribe back then, perhaps we Tarlin people could have protected our territory instead of being exiled like this now."
The other exiles nodded in agreement, clearly empathizing with the sentiment.
Lu Ning smiled and then said, "Since you are willing to come to Earth to help humanity, I will help you reclaim your homeland later."
Upon hearing this, many of the exiled demigods smiled.
Li Yang then asked, "Uncle, what do we do next?"
Lu Ning thought for a moment and then said, "Hunting evil gods."
Upon hearing this, the air fell silent for a moment.
All the demigods experienced pupil contraction and intense mental fluctuations.
That's an evil god!
Originally, they could only escape the gaze of the evil god and never dared to hope that they could confront the evil god.
Just a few days ago, hundreds of demigods were sacrificed to resist the moon.
Now, Lu Ning is actually going to hunt down an evil god?
However, Lu Ning's idea is not impossible.
Lu Ning, who was originally just a high-level saint, has now been promoted by a whole major level and is now a high-level demigod!
Moreover, Lu Ning can now absorb not only mental pollution, but also the side effects of disposable god-level dangerous substances.
This means that all the demigods present can use disposable dangerous goods without any pressure.
With Lu Ning's strength, they now truly have the ability to hunt down evil gods!
This discovery brought immense joy to many demigods, both guardians and exiles.
Li Yang seemed to realize something and slowly said, "Uncle, are you planning to deal with other planets?"
As a specter of fate, Li Yang knew a little about the fact that other planets were also considered evil gods.
The other guardians also knew something about it.
However, this news did not get out.
After all, the fact that several celestial bodies in the entire star system are evil gods would not benefit humanity if the news were to spread; on the contrary, it would only lead to despair for everyone.
When Li Yang brought up this matter, all the guardians frowned slightly and hesitated.
Xuanxu couldn't help but say, "Lu Ning, it's not that we're unwilling to deal with the evil gods of other planets, but the problem is... once we kill those planetary evil gods, the planets will probably collapse, right?"
Bai Yuan nodded slightly and said slowly, "Once other planets collapse, the gravitational structure of the entire solar system will probably change, and Earth will hardly survive."
Xuanxu nodded: "Yes, right now, just the destruction of the moon has caused gravitational changes that are causing constant natural disasters on Earth. But fortunately, we can still withstand it for now. If other planets were to disappear as well, the gravitational changes would be enough to destroy the Earth's surface, wouldn't they?"
The other exiled demigods remained silent.
They also agreed that the guardians of humanity were right.
But naturally, they had to listen to Lu Ning.
Lu Ning listened to Xuan Xu and Bai Yuan's words with a calm expression and said, "There's no problem. If a planet collapses, we can just create another one."
The numerous demigods: "???"
All the demigods were momentarily stunned.
Recreate a planet?
If a god-level expert said this, they might believe it.
But how could a demigod create a planet?
Even destroying a planet is difficult for a demigod.
Perhaps a demigod can destroy all life on a landmass, but destroying a planet and destroying the surface of the earth are completely different concepts.
Destruction is difficult enough, let alone creation.
Even when Lu Ning said this, they found it hard to believe.
Li Yang was the first to come to his senses. He looked at Lu Ning with some surprise and asked, "Uncle, you can create another planet??"
Lu Ning nodded calmly: "It should be fine."
Given his own abilities, it would indeed be difficult for him to do this.
However, Lu Ning discovered that although he had left the Land of Return to Nothingness, his connection with the Tower of Return to Nothingness remained, albeit extremely weak.
Even with such a weak connection, Lu Ning could still try to pry open the Tower of Return to Nothingness, and with the addition of the Pale Crystal, to materialize a planet.
His intuition told him that this was feasible.
If he believes he can do it, then he must be able to do it.
Having received Lu Ning's affirmative answer, the demigods stopped asking questions.
They now had a good understanding of Lu Ning's abilities.
"Since Lord Lu Ning has made his plans, we are certainly willing to follow him."
The Void Queen was the first to speak out.
The other exiled demigods also spoke up.
Li Yang and the others nodded in agreement.
Lu Ning thought for a moment and calmly said, "Let's leave nine demigods in the nine base cities, so that the illusory mist won't materialize after we leave."
Li Yang nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "Bai Yuan, you should stay. Your ability allows you to quickly transmit messages."
Bai Yuan paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.
The other eight demigods left behind eight exiles.
Then, pale flames burned in Lu Ning's eyes as he calmly said, "Open the spatial gate to the outside of the Earth barrier."
Space distorted, and a spatial portal opened.
Lu Ning stepped inside, and Li Yang and the others followed.
When Li Yang and his group arrived on the other side of the portal and saw Earth below, they were somewhat surprised.
Xuanxu asked with a mental fluctuation, "Lu Ning, aren't we supposed to be looking for those planets? Why are we traversing such a short distance?"
Lu Ning calmly said, "I want to create the moon first, so that natural disasters on Earth will also disappear."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Ning with anticipation.
They were very curious about how Lu Ning managed to create the moon.
Lu Ning attempted to pry open the Tower of Return to Nothingness. The next moment, pale flames burned in his eyes, and he calmly said, "I want to create a moon."
In the vacuum, a pale light surged, enveloping an area spanning thousands of kilometers.
Within the pale light, the phantom of a moon appeared, then gradually solidified.
